Property Description
You will not want to miss this light filled 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath West Mount Airy home with contemporary open floor plan layout on a tree-lined, friendly block in the sought-after C.W. Henry school catchment. A spectacular Cherry blossom tree in front welcomes you home in spring and fall along with perennial gardens and a front yard for gatherings. You have two options for entry. Ascend the steps to the main door on the side of the home or drive into the back alley to your own private attached garage, with room for another car in the driveway. Upon entering, you will immediately be struck by incredible light and original character, including beautifully preserved hardwood floors with inlay details, crown moldings, wainscoting and custom plantation shutters. The bright and airy open concept living room has an original fireplace mantle that has been converted to gas for clean and easy usage. French doors open onto an enclosed front sunroom with windows on all sides and an entrance to a private outdoor deck overlooking the front yard. In the other direction is a large dining room that opens onto the kitchen outfitted with new hardwood flooring, granite countertops and island, stainless steel appliances, and ceramic subway tile backsplash. A light-filled adjacent breakfast room opens onto a private back deck perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or dining al fresco. The finished basement features ample additional living space, a powder room, a built-in washer/dryer suite and access to the garage. This space is large enough to use as a guest room, play space or office or some combination. Upstairs you will find 4 bedrooms, including the gorgeous master suite with renovated master bathroom, 3 additional good-sized bedrooms, and an additional full Jack and Jill bathroom. The home is located within just a few blocks of Weavers Way Co-Op, Highpoint Cafe, Carpenters Woods, and Tiffin Indian Restaurant. Close to Lincoln Drive and just a few minutes walk from the Carpenter Lane Train Station for an easy commute into Center City and the suburbs. The sellers have taken impeccable care of the home and have made many upgrades including replacing knob and tube with all new electric wiring, renovating both full bathrooms, installing new ceiling fans in all main rooms, new light fixtures, and custom plantation shutters throughout. They installed a new gas fireplace and new sliding glass doors and new wood flooring in the kitchen to match the original hardwood. They built a new front deck off the sun room, landscaping in the front to build a small yard and a bounding stone wall and a garden with a mix of Spring and Fall perennials. This is a wonderfully friendly block where neighbors love to congregate. The next owners are truly coming home to not only a wonderful home but also a wonderful West Mount Airy community!
